Making Amazing Smile Even Better
Why Abilene Parents Choose Key City Kids,
A Top-Rated Pediatric Dentist & Orthodontist.
"I Highly recommend taking your children here for any restorative needs. Dr. Zach actually talked to me and was able to get my son out of pain without forcing iv sedation like the other pediatric offices in town. My son didn't even know he had the tooth taken out until I showed him in the car."
"I was very impressed from the receptionist to the doctor! Everyone was friendly and sweet. We drove from out of town for a cleaning and Dr. Zach was nice enough to continue with an extraction that needed to be done. We will definitely continue making the drive for the great service."
"Great experience! We were concerned with our 8 month old and the dentist Dr. Ellis was able to take her in and help fix the issue and did great with our baby. The entire staff was very nice and professional. Thank you!"
"They were very patient and understanding with my son who is autistic..he had horrible experiences with his previous dentist, but here at key city kids they took the time with him and addressed his needs..will definitely keep him with key city kids ❤️"
"We love the friendly staff, clean facility and hassle free experience. You need to go here, not to the “other” choice in town for pediatric dentistry. Dentists and orthodontics both great and convenient having them in the same location."
